Advice please. My flight from London to Glasgow was cancelled tomorrow so I took a refund and booked a train. The flight has now been reinstated and I'm being offered the flight again. Am I best just sticking with the train? Or do I have some recourse to get compensation if I went on the flight?

Are the train tickets refundable? If so, can the train and fly. Email the flight provider saying what a shambles it is and how you’ve had to change stuff at your expense looking for compo is my advice. I’d probably just stick with the train in reality because I’m a lazy idiot.

Pretty sure you were due 250 euros for the flight being cancelled plus the refund, so they'll be saving money if they pay your train fare and give you the flight back. So you have leverage to ask for the train fare back + the flight.

You can take your own cans onto the train, therefore take the train, upgrade to first class & claim every bit of compensation for the inconvenience this has caused.

Was in Toronto at the time with three hours to go until my flight to Heathrow so couldn't really do anything at the time and having just arrived in London, I only have a few hours. Train was non-refundable so I'm just going with that, although it gets me home four hours later. I'll get onto them about it when I'm home
